My sympathy to the family of Dr.Walter Combs. I can never forget him since he was my own pediatrician .My parents respected him greatly. I was born in 1954 and graduated from Howard College of Medicine in 1980. He was a pioneer in Pediatrics. He was a founding member of the Pediatric section of the National Medical Association. I speak on behalf of my sister Gisele and brother Clarence III. So lucky to have an accomplished physician to take care of us during our vulnerable years!

so sorry to hear of Dr Combs passing.
He was so kind and gentle with children.
He took care of two of my children and they are grown now, they don't make them like that anymore.
God bless the family, my deepest sympathy.

Deepest sympathies to the family. I remember those trips to see Dr. Combs when he was at 9th & Rhode Island Ave NW with both excitement and fear of having to get a shot. However, there was something about his eyes and smile that was comforting. He was a very special man. May you find comfort during this difficult period in knowing how much he impacted so many lives.
